Beauty Held

No darkened night can be too dark
That mine eyes could never see
The beauty that exists therein
The sky that blankets me

Nor burning light can blind my eyes
And take away their view
The celestial beauty that so exists
Is nothing next to you

With eyes then closed, they still see
The wonder, I call you
As your face is etched in my mind
And always loved so true
